Ever since I started practicing with meditation my ears have been ringing 24/7. Even when my mind is busy with something else I'll pause for a second and realize the high pitched ringing noise that no one else can hear.
Is this a good thing? :?
Greetings The14Lights
You too huh ? This has been happening to me, on and off, for many years. And I've no idea why the ears ring some times and not at others. It just happens for no rhyme or reason.
One thing that I have noticed is that the ear ringing signals extended periods of heightened psychic awareness. For example during ear ringing my scores at gotpsi.org tend to rise and math problems seem easier. Don't know why, just sayin.

I experience this quite a bit too. When I do my awareness turns up a notch and I seem to have some kind of "flow" of psychic prowess. Once in awhile it is also accompanied by a bit of "vertigo" or a feeling of rising.
I have never really questioned it. Probably because I felt it kind of went with the "territory", per say! :wink:
Yea I do notice when the ringing intensifies my awareness is amped up....... Thank you guys for the input.
Peace.
My ringing has not turned off since I discover OBE last year. There has to have some kind of link to OBE. The ringing is not too loud where it will bother my sleep.

I believe the "ringing' was there all along. It's just that now you are fully aware of it's presence! :wink:

I concur. Sometimes you can't 'turn off' awareness. But you can learn to ignore certain things.
There are two types of ringing. One is tinnitus which is from TCM point of view because of deficiency in liver and kidney or a few other reasons. Another is a high pitched sound that is basically the sound of the unseen world maybe because of the movement of the entities around us so partly it sounds like someone walking on dry leaves . I have had both and in my experience the second one is much milder and not annoying. Also it only shows itself when I start different types of meditation. Tinnitus on the other hand is like a constant whistle and is more annoying. I have only had it a few times and know the difference but don't know how to explain it.
If you get this ringing in the NP you should focus upon it and do your best to increase it as high as you can. The environment will change accordingly. See how you go and what the new environment feels like.
You will like it. :-D

Tinnitus is not so narrowly defined. It can be exactly like pre-exit OBE soundings.

Thanks for the article. I think from medicine's point of view the meditation sound is one type of tinnitus. However I think there should be a difference between ear malfunction and that extra sensitivity that we develop in meditation. For my case what makes the difference is that as I go deeper into meditation I can see/sense the entities that are moving around and the high pitched sound turns to the more clear hiss sound as they move.
I also think that hearing it all the time might be because of overusing that sensitivity which might damage the ear, so probably it's better to ignore it and focus on the earthly life when one is not in meditation.
Years ago when I was in high school I use to focus a lot on this sound and the result was sensing and hearing the clear sound of other entities all the time. Although it made me very sensitive it also caused headaches and lack of concentration in studying so I decided to separate these two aspects of my life and ignore the sounds when I am not in meditation.
Sorry to resurrect but just had to chip in.
I've had Tinnitus for about a year and it started as a shrill, tin kettle whistling sound a day after I meditated quite intensely and felt a very pleasurable rush of sensations. My pet theory is that I triggered a massive release of endorphins and the brains natural happy chemicals which overloaded my central nervous system.
The popular theory is that Most T sufferers seem to get it from loud noises that damage hairs in the cochlear but Otoxic drugs can also be a cause - Were you taking any antibiotics?
Whatever the cause it's overtaking PTS as the No 1 war ground injury and now soldiers are coming home with it money is actually being spent trying to find a cure - right now it baffles the medical profession. I hate to say it but Doctors and ENT's are a waste of time. Most are coming round to the way of thinking that it's a neurological issue and similar to pain felt from an amputated limb.
When it's low (which if I'm honest is most of the time nowadays) then it's a low hiss and quite manageable but some things do seem to annoy it. Linking back to AP, I'm a novice at AP and have only had a couple of very hazy middle of the night lucid dream type projections but they have both been heralded by pounding heart beat and Ajna chakra and my T goes crazy. The noise is the every day whine but on steroids.
Interestingly there is a noise which Tibetans call Diba-Sota, it means 'divine ear' and is characterized by the ringing ear sound and strongly linked to meditation. Apparently though it's a lower pitch, more like the buzzing of bees and quite pleasant.
I've had tinnitus for about 4 years. (I used to play in a band--too loud.) It sounds like crickets chirping. Kind of rhythmic, along with my heartbeat. If I focus on it, it helps with my trance and a conscious exit. I really wish I could hear silence again, though. Young people, please don't take your hearing for granted. Turn down the volume on your headphones. Use ear plugs at concerts, around machinery etc. The thing about hearing damage is it sneaks up on you. You don't realize there's any problem until it's too late.
I hope it's not tinnitus.
lol i read this yesterday and last night i was hearing buzzing in my ears all the time while i was doing the purple flame.
What's the Purple Flame holy Blood?
it's a meditation, i do it every day

Yes Yes Yes lol finally i found someone with the same situatio.Ive been hearing ringing in my ears ever since i could remember (meaning very young).And recently ive been hearing it 24/7 too.
Theres this youtuber RaImhotep El i beleive is his name ill link his video if i can. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P6SrA95OK0Y he basically says that when ever you hear a ringing in the ears a "being" is trying to communicate with you in a way.Youll have to watch the video yourself to really understand what he means by this i suggest you watch it.
-In medical terms, it can be tinnitus, ear damage caused by over exposure to decibels over 100, however I only notice an increase in the normal ear ringin I experience after heavy exposure then it dies down again.
-In spiritual terms, it can be tied to receiving "messages" and heightened psychic awareness. This makes sense to me, I am aware of the fact that I'm "not listening" and doing whatever it is I can to listen, but in the last two weeks after getting a poisonous person out of my life the ringing has died down to a comfortable hum and my creative blocks are diminishing.
-It's so much nicer to write lyrics about astral projection instead of ex boyfriends :)
the one I'm having almost consistently since my first OBE is the vibrating ringing that you can hear in this piece :

I made sure it is NOT matching the heartbeat, it's not the same rhythm

Oh wow... Listening to the video as I type. I think there is truth to be said in what this guy speaks. Brief story as to why: A couple of months ago, I get back in touch with some people I had a grudge with. They are always talking about aliens, and things that our government doesn't talk about. I tell a new friend that I have Aspergers, and he tells me about Indigo Children. I start looking up videos on Indigoism, and find RaImhotep El's channel, and his video to Aliens and Indigos. Seemed like some guy just ranting, and I turned the video off and went on with life. Well, I just came to this thread because after watching some videos on lucid dreaming, and Binaural beats, and there is now a constant ringing in my ears. Even when the videos stop, and even when I take the headphones off. Now he's talking about crystals, and the friend that told me about Indigo, gave me a crystal and said it carried some powerful energy. Crystals have frequences, and I've been keeping the crystal he gave me next to my computer, along with about twelve other crystals. My ears are picking up so many frequencies, and everything is adding up.
I realize this is an older post but I had some insight on this recently and I thought it appropriate to resurrect this slightly older topic. I have tennits but as I'm doing energy work the ringing changes pitch and gets much worse. I asked one of the guides I work with. ( an angel I think it was) what it was and they said it was the energy level rising and it was in fact the clairaudient ability that enabled me to hear it. Unfortunetely not all sounds heard via that ability are pleasant. The energy has to be raised and moving freely before accurate messages can be preceived.
Also know that if someone is trying to talk to you, you may hear that sudden ringing for a few seconds and then it will go away. That's what happens if the message doesn't translate properly into a language that youcan understand. I'm not sure if that's what the post above is talking about or not so sorry if I have made a redundant post.
I never really accorded much importance to ear ringing in the physical world because it never did anything to me (no clairvoyance or anything.)
But in the NP that's a whole other story, sometimes it can act as a warning that something is about to happen
I also noticed that when that happens in NP it's very very powerful, you will hear a very high pitch and you won't be able to hear anything else.
Time will also seem to slow down immensely and you will feel much more aware.
Then you watch your back and an entity is starting to chase you.
It's useful for that otherwise... Theses things about the meaning of every ringing in that you may hear at this or that hour doesn't mean anything to me.
I do believe however that if you hear ringing sometimes it means that someone is thinking about you.
Most of the time, I'm able to decrypt which person that is but for other ringings, I don't see any link with other meanings.
Sometimes I hear ringing when I'm about to project, a very low pitched sound like: -Bvvvuuuuuuuuuu----
But I think that's when I'm aware that I'm no longer thinking about anything and I just concentrate on the sound to achieve AP.
Seems obvious now most of us have this. Mine is quite low and doesn't bother me. Its like being in a loud club or seeing a band and having the ringing after when things get quiet again. It gets more intense when meditating. If i focus primarily on the 'sound' it starts to become recognisable as a tone. I have yet to try and match this tone (if i can) with my keyboard and fine a note to match. I was hoping someone had tried this. Anyone?
If I get chance I will do this today
Mine acts different but that's typical of astral experiences. When I communicate I make intentional energy changes though now I'm trying to learn a more subtle method of focusing in on the spirit. I have to adjust the energy focus in my head and that causes the intensity and pitch of the ringing to change. Before I was having to open a chakra or two and raise energy to acomplish what I can now do with an adjustment. I learned this over the past month or so. My issue in clairaudience isn't lack of communication it's that I hear everything nearby. I shocked my teacher with this initially I overheard them talking and asked about it. So I have to learn to focus on them and not on everything I am able to hear. So if the mechanism to create the tennitis is the same in everyone your explanation actually fits I just realized. The attempt to refocus brings the change in the energy pattern which can be used to affect your speech center in your brain. It probably allows the flow of the energy to be heard as sound.
I got mine from listening to Led Zeppelin at outrageous volumes while walking with a headset on. It's called tinnitus, folks, tinnitus.
It is what you decide it is, everyone gets to have their own experience, their own relationship with the sound, tones and pitches. I'm taking a super fun ride with it myself. As I see others here are. (so pleasing). Even if you just use the sound to shift awareness IN slightly, experiencing will become so much fuller. Many ride the IN wave so slow the changes and alterations in the reality and perceptions are barely discernible. It just seems like everything is pretty much the same. I like to ride it fast, so the alterations (the [brainwave] shifts into additional fields) are immediate, clear and apparent. As is the related restructuring of the body field.

I think is a shift in awareness similar to hissing you appreciates when phasing.
If you gives to much attention to it, you could went crazy trying to avoid it. Take it as another aspect of you, another sensation, similar to perceive the ground beneath you. You cannot avoid to perceive you are attached to Earth; then you has nothing to do about that. Is something new.

I had this problem for as long as I can remember. I just ignored it for the most part. Eventually I started taking an interest in it in my 20s and started researching different causes. I eventually was focused so much on the effect that I started losing sleep. It was all I could think about or focus on. I went to doctors and the hospital several times with no answers. They gave me some sleeping meds and said stay away from loud music. At one point I broke down, I started seeing leeches all over a tower of Jenga blocks. (Jenga the game) They were sworming in and out of the blocks all over, up and down. I started freaking as I had never had any sort of visions or delusions, as this obviously was. I cried my self to sleep and I tried my best to put the noise out of my head.
Fast forward six years and over the last month I have taken an interest in astral projection, meditation, chakras and so on. When I started doing these "activities" the ringing in my ears became more dominant, once again, but it's not scary or annoying or distracting this time. I have acknowledged it's there and that its either related to Astral Projecting or a side effect of being more aware of my physical body.
This isn't to say this is what is happening to you, heck I still really don't know why I am hearing the ringing noises or why I can hear if a TV is on in the house. This is just my experience. Hopefully you can adapt or understand something to or from your own experiences.
A friend has this problem and certain foods make the noise unbearable.
It may be worthwhile researching if any foods are known to make things worse.
Cheese is the worst for my friend.
